Unity needs all your support to keep our earth green! Please help us by collecting used glass and dropping it at Unity in our recycle bin next to the exit gate. On a yearly basis, The Glass Recycling Company put out a competition to the Schools to see who can collect the most glass. We need to collect more used class than the other schools in our province if we stand to be competitive and having fewer students than our main stream neighbours means we need to work twice as hard.

There are 3 ways to reduce the amount of waste glass in South Africa:

Recycle your glass

Glass recycling is the process whereby you return glass bottles and jars to the manufacturers. The manufacturers then melt the glass container to make brand new packaging. Read our Why recycle section for more info.

Return your glass

Returnable bottles are glass beverage bottles that can be returned to a supermarket, liquor outlet or retailer once empty, for a refund. These glass containers will be sent to the beverage company where the bottles are sterilised and refilled ready to be reused several times.

Reuse your glass

Use your glass containers again and again after the glass has been used for its original purpose. A glass bottle can be used again to hold another liquid or be used as something new – for example a glass bottle can be reused as a vase.
